The Problem
Try this!
The TV image does not
look as good as it did
in the store.
Store displays are all tuned to digital, HD (high definition) channels.
If you have an analogue cable/set top box, upgrade to a digital set top box. Use
HDMI or Component cables to deliver HD (high definition) picture quality.
Many HD channels are upscaled from SD (Standard Definition) content. Look for a
channel that is broadcasting true HD content.
●
Cable/Satellite Subscribers: Try HD channels from the channel lineup.
●
Terrestrial/Cable Aerial Connection: Try HD channels after running
the Auto Tuning function.
Adjust the cable/satellite box's video output resolution to 1080i or 720p.
The picture is distorted.
The compression of video content may cause picture distortions, especially in fast
moving pictures from sports programmes and action movies.
A weak or bad quality signal can cause picture distortions. This is not an issue
with the TV.
Mobile phones used close to the TV (within 1 m) may cause noise in analogue and
digital channels.
The colour is wrong or
missing.
If you’re using a Component connection, make sure that the Component cables are
connected to the correct jacks. Incorrect or loose connections may cause colour
problems or a blank screen.
The colour is poor or
the picture is not bright
enough.
Go to the
Picture
menu and then adjust the
Picture Mode
,
Brightness
,
Sharpness
,
and
Colour
settings.
See if
Energy Saving
(

) has been enabled.
Try resetting the picture. (

There is a dotted line
on the edge of the
screen.
If the
Picture Size
has been set to
Screen Fit
, change the setting to
16:9
.
Change the cable/satellite box resolution.
The picture is black
and white.
Make sure to properly connect any external device to the TV properly.
When changing
channels, the picture
freezes or is distorted
or delayed.
If the TV is connected to a cable box, try to reset the box. (Disconnect and then
reconnect the AC cord and wait until the cable box reboots. It may take up to 20
minutes.)
Set the output resolution of the cable box to 1080i or 720p.
